About Me
Rodney Frelinghuysen is now serving his seventh term in Congress. He is on the powerful House Appropriations Committee, including three subcommittees: Defense, Select Intelligence Oversight Panel, Commerce, Justice, and Science. In these roles, Rep. Frelinghuysen has authority and oversight of virtually all defense and domestic activities of the federal government, most notably the Departments of Defense, Commerce, Justice, National Science Foundation, and NASA.
Frelinghuysen spends time visiting and talking with our troops here and abroad, so he can evaluate the needs of our servicemen and -women firsthand. A Vietnam veteran, Frelinghuysen knows the very real sacrifice made by our troops and their families. He is well known for his efforts to strengthen our military, especially in New Jersey.
